After digging through the code I found that if you explicitly set installerType
it will use that, but if you dont set it it will generate all for the operating system:
Nevermind, Im unable to create an rpm
on Ubuntu 22.04.

@ctadlock That is not an issue with this plugin. It's with the design of jpackage, you need to be on the system that you are going to create an installer for, you cannot cross-package installers. You can however create portable jlink app image archives but they're not so user-friendly.
Closing this as answered.
For Windows, I want to create both "zip" and "exe" (built on Windows), and for Linux I want to create both "deb" and "rpm" (built on Linux).
If this is in the documentation somewhere I cant find it.
